Happy Monday college Fashionistas/os! This week’s style advice is all about military jackets! While some are intimidated by military-esque pieces, this Fashionista owns it while working it into her own unique style. If you’re trying to add some bad girl attitude to your outfit, this might be the piece for you! For the first day back on campus after winter break, this outfit is relaxed and comfy while managing your way around.

This Fashionista pairs her jacket with an adorable ivory sweater, skinny jeans, gray leg warmers and brown boots. For a more edgy look, you could wear this jacket with a graphic T-shirt, skater skirt and tights. You could also throw it over a pretty summer dress and add some knit leggings underneath to stay warm.

Regardless of how you choose to rock a military jacket, it’s kind of hard to mess up this trend. Hanging right next to your leather jacket, this should be a staple item to have in your wardrobe. While the military jacket has been a trend for a while, it looks like it’s not going anywhere anytime soon. So what better time than now to try it if you still haven’t? With a variety of choices out there, you can find ones that have studs, drawstrings, pockets, texture, leather and text. Find what works for you and be open to trying new things!
